Pharaoh Killed Thousands… But Couldn’t Stop ONE Baby

Surah Al-Qasas (Verses 1–7)

Introduction

Surah Al-Qasas is a Makkan Surah that narrates the early life of Prophet Musa (Moses, peace be upon him) and exposes the cruelty of Pharaoh.
The opening verses were revealed to comfort the oppressed Muslims of Makkah, showing them that Allah always supports the weak and destroys tyrants—no matter how powerful they seem.

Explanation of Verses (1–7)

Verses 1–2

The disconnected letters Ta-Seen-Meem (طٰسٓمٓ) highlight the miraculous nature of the Qur’an.

These verses confirm that the Qur’an is a clear and true Book from Allah.

Verse 3

Allah announces that He will narrate the true story of Musa and Pharaoh, as a lesson for those who believe.

Verse 4

Pharaoh became arrogant in the land.

He divided people into classes.

He oppressed Bani Israel, killing their sons and sparing their women.

He was among the greatest corrupters.

Verse 5

Allah declares His divine plan:

To favor the oppressed

To make them leaders

And to make them heirs of the land

Verse 6

Allah promises to:

Establish them firmly on earth

Show Pharaoh, Haman, and their armies the very thing they feared

Verse 7

Allah inspired the mother of Musa:

Breastfeed him

When in danger, place him in the river

Do not fear or grieve

Allah will return him to her and make him a Messenger

This inspiration was divine guidance (not prophethood).

Summary

Surah Al-Qasas (1–7) teaches that:

Tyranny never lasts

Allah supports the oppressed

Power belongs only to Allah

His plan works silently but perfectly

Pharaoh tried to stop Musa’s birth, but Allah raised Musa inside Pharaoh’s own palace.

History of Bani Israel (Brief)

Bani Israel were the descendants of Prophet Yaqub (Jacob, peace be upon him).

They migrated to Egypt and later became enslaved.

Pharaoh feared the birth of a child who would end his rule.

He ordered the killing of newborn boys.

Allah protected Musa and prepared him to become the leader who would free Bani Israel.
